My Understanding of AI in CX so Far. Things Could Change!

CX Accelerator

I’m not known for being quick on the uptake by those closest to me. A couple prime examples include long division and driving a stick-shift. When my only option was a manual transmission, my parents just sort of cut me loose on the streets of Rancho Cucamonga, California to learn to drive (Yes, I already had my driver’s license but on an automatic transmission).

She clearly was upset at something that happened.

Blinders. They’re used on racehorses to keep their focus on running straight ahead and to not be distracted by the horses on either side.
